Today I took the family, including the baby, for an introduction to some real jet noise! (The wife wants her to grow up to be a vet, I have other plans... :whistle ) This was my first trip to Lakenheath, and I have to say I love the place.

Here's a selection of my favourite shots I took today.

Looks like you picked a good day to make your first visit (they aren't all like that unfortunately!)

Did you go round to Mildenhall and John's field as well?

They were a lot more interesting than the Grob Tutors I get over my house daily :lol:

We just did Lakenheath todayas we had the little one with us and didn't want to be moving her around too much. As Mildenhall is only 45mins away from me now i'll do there in the near future. Do you know if Mildenhall has much activity at weekends? I'm sure i've seen photo posts from there over the years that were taken during weekends.

Mildenhall does keep flying over the weekend, although there's possibly still a dip in activity compared to weekdays.

Cracking pictures,

The sepia sun ones are my favorite.


The hall has been fairly quiet on the weekends at the moment but we had at least 2 C-5's in within 24 hours sunday/monday and monday there was no end of odds and ends coming over the house on 11. Including a tornado or two, we usually get them over from Marham on tuesdays.
